Our History

Anglican Community Fund was formed as a committee of the Perth Diocesan Trustees (PDT) in 1966 and was incorporated in February 1994. Initially known as Anglican Deposit Fund Perth (Inc.), the fund changed its name to Anglican Community Fund on February 24, 2004.

For over 45 years the Anglican Community Fund has provided members of the Anglican community with attractive returns on their Investments and Loan facilities based on competitive interest rates and an understanding credit policy.

Part of the Anglican Community Fund's philosophy is to eliminate or reduce the need for Anglican organisations to utilise banks for their financial needs. Our primary points of differentiation with other financial institutions are the level of service provided to our clients and that profits made by the Anglican Community Fund are distributed to the Anglican Community.

In 2004 the Anglican Community Fund expanded its services which means we now offer comprehensive investment and lending solutions to Anglican Agencies, Charities, Parishes and Schools throughout Western Australia. This initiative has been very successful with the Fund's assets increasing from $49 million to $156 million.

Distributions paid by the Fund to the Anglican Community now total over $17 million. The distributions paid by the Anglican Community Fund to the Diocese play a significant role in terms of assisting the Diocese fund its mission.
